For its Chromebook 1:1 initiative to
succeed and comply with federal laws,
Lee’s Summit R-7 School District
required a web filtering solution that
protected students on and off campus.
Business Challenge
With 18,000 students and 2,600 staff utilizing school devices across 32
locations, the Lee’s Summit R-7 School District required a self-scaling
web filtering solution to keep its students safe online. The need became
more pronounced when the District adopted a 1:1 Chromebook policy
as part of its Connect2Learn program.
Under the new program, every student is provided a device both on
and off campus, and the students’ online safety is a top priority for
the school. Securly’s web filtering software monitors student activity
irrespective of whether the students are on campus, along with sending
regular reports to the school as well as parents.
According to Dr. Amy Gates, R-7’s Executive Director of Technology, a
one-size-fits-all approach is not suitable for a District the size of R-7.
Securly’s self-serviceable customization of blacklisting and whitelisting
of websites as per user requirements appealed to Dr. Gates. Kinzie
Wooderson, Coordinator of Network Services echoed Dr. Gates
concerns and pointed out the need to provide flexibility to its teachers
to access all relevant online resources without being hindered by non-
intuitive filtering setups.
Any device. Anywhere. Secure.
